It's so wrong it made me question my reading comprehension and basic understanding of math.

It was a typo. There are only 6.6 people in Ireland.

[–] Professorozone@lemmy.world 17 points 1 month ago

If there were 666 people in Ireland, they could fight off billions of Penguins and take their souls.
